  • 10' - The travelling Costa Rica supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 15' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Keylor Navas suffering a number of foals already.
  • 20' - Costa Rica seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
